Every responsible adult needs a personal will and every responsible psychotherapist in private practice also needs a professional will. 
Ken Pope, Ph.D. has posted on his website a chapter (from a book he has co-authored with Melba Vasquez, Ph.D.) entitled Therapist’s Guide to Preparing a Professional Will.
You may not like to think about the many ways that you can end up unable to take care of your professional responsibilities but ethically, you are still required to do just that. Take a look at Ken and Melba’s suggestions for how to get your professional will in order.
Do you already have a professional will? Is there something that you can add to these suggestions?
Hi Tamara, so many thanks for posting this link. A timely reminder to get my affairs in order – just in case.
